A History Of The State Delaware by Francis Vincent presents a comprehensive historical account of Delaware's early settlement, focusing on the Dutch and Swedish ventures that first mapped and inhabited the region, and tracing the geographic and geological features of the area. The work details the Delaware Bay and River, the surrounding counties and hundreds, and the changing boundaries that arose from colonial treaties and imperial ambitions. It covers the successive colonial powers—Dutch, Swedish, and English—and their interactions with Native American tribes, including the Minquas and Nanticokes, as well as the social and political dynamics surrounding fortifications such as Fort Nassau, Fort Christina, and Fort Cassimer. The volume also describes the state's geography and geology, including rock formations, soils, marls, and fossil remains, offering a foundational view of Delaware’s physical landscape in addition to its political history. Original publication year: 1870.
